What is Panchang?+

Panchang(literally "five limbs") is the traditional Hindu calendar and almanac. It consists of five elements: Tithi (lunar day), Nakshatra (lunar mansion), Yoga (luni-solar combination), Karana (half of tithi), and Vara (weekday). It is used daily to determine auspicious timings for rituals, ceremonies, and important activities.

The Tithiis calculated from the angular distance between the Sun and Moon. Each 12 degrees of separation equals one tithi, giving 30 tithis in a lunar month — 15 in the waxing phase (Shukla Paksha) and 15 in the waning phase (Krishna Paksha).

Checking the daily panchang is an integral part of Hindu tradition. It helps in selecting muhurtas (auspicious moments) for starting new ventures, performing puja, fasting on specific tithis like Ekadashi, and understanding the planetary influences of the day.

Karnal Panchang — करनाल पंचांग

State

Haryana

Sunrise Range

5:26–7:22 AM

Coordinates

29.69°N, 76.99°E

Karnal is traditionally held to be the city of Karna, the Mahabharata's great warrior-king and legendary philanthropist, and Karna Lake in the city marks the site where, according to legend, he gave alms to the poor. Karneshwar Mahadev Mandir in Sector 7, built in white marble with a five-faced Shiva Lingam, is the city's most visited temple. Durga Bhawani Mandir draws large crowds during Navratri, and Hariyali Teej, marking Parvati's reunion with Shiva, is widely observed by women across the district. Panchang, choghadiya, and rahu kaal timings are computed for Karnal's exact coordinates.

Karnal's solar year — sunrise, sunset and day length

In Karnal the longest day runs 13h 54m (June) and the shortest 10h 07m (December) — a seasonal swing of 3h 47m. Solar noon falls +22m from the 12:00 clock hour because Karnal sits at 76.99°E rather than on the 82.5°E IST meridian. Every Tithi, Nakshatra and Rahu Kaal window on this page is derived from that sunrise, not from a national average.

Which places near Karnal can read these Panchang timings

Tirawari lies 14 km north-west of Karnal and sees sunrise 0m to +1m against it, so the sunrise row of this Panchang moves by that much there. Across every place listed below the shift runs −3m to +2m and each of the eight daylight periods keeps the same length it has here, so the periods do not stretch — only the boundary moves.

Five Elements of Karnal Panchang

The traditional Panchang (पंचांग, meaning “five limbs”) comprises five essential elements that determine auspiciousness for any activity in Karnal:

Tithi (तिथि)

Lunar day — the angular relationship between Sun and Moon. 30 Tithis per lunar month.

Nakshatra (नक्षत्र)

Lunar mansion — the constellation the Moon occupies. 27 Nakshatras in the lunar zodiac.

Yoga (योग)

Combination of Sun and Moon longitudes. 27 Yogas from Vishkambha to Vaidhriti.

Karana (करण)

Half-Tithi — there are 11 Karanas, cycling through 60 Karanas in a lunar month.

Vara (वार)

Day of the week, each ruled by a planet (Sun=Sunday through Saturn=Saturday).

Karnal Festivals & Panchang

Karnal's major festivals — Navratri (Durga Bhawani Mandir), Hariyali Teej, Baisakhi— are calculated using the Hindu lunisolar calendar. Festival dates change each year because the lunar calendar drifts against the solar calendar. The Panchang above shows today's Tithi and Nakshatra. For complete annual festival almanacs with specific timings for Karnal, use the Ishvaram Jyotish app.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is today's Panchang calculated for Karnal?

The Panchang for Karnal is calculated using Swiss Ephemeris with Karnal's exact coordinates (Haryana, latitude/longitude). Sunrise in Karnal ranges from 5:26–7:22 AM seasonally, which affects the start of each Tithi. The Panchang shows today's Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana, and planetary positions — all calibrated to Karnal's local time.

Can nearby towns like Tirawari use Karnal's Panchang timings?

Almost, with a small shift. Tirawari lies 14 km north-west of Karnal and sees sunrise 0m to +1m against it, so the sunrise row of this Panchang moves by that much there. Across the recorded places within 150 km of Karnal that shift stays between −3m and +2m through the year — the nearby-place table above lists each one. For a town whose shift runs past a few minutes, compute with its own coordinates instead of copying Karnal's slot.

Why are Karnal's Panchang timings different from other cities?

Panchang timings vary because they are based on actual astronomical observations for a specific location. Karnal's sunrise (5:26–7:22 AM), longitude, and latitude determine the precise start and end times of Tithis, Nakshatras, and Yogas. A Karnal Panchang uses the city's actual coordinates rather than a single standard Indian time.

When is Navratri (Durga Bhawani Mandir) in Karnal in 2025–2026?

Navratri (Durga Bhawani Mandir) dates are determined by the Hindu lunisolar calendar and are the same across India, though local observance customs vary. The Panchang above shows today's Tithi and Nakshatra, which you can use to track approaching festivals. For annual festival calendars, the Ishvaram Jyotish app provides complete Indian festival almanacs with Karnal-specific timing where relevant.
